The Night Watchman of Siheyuan

Chapter 139 Ancient City

Ye Tian didn't hesitate at all, he walked quickly forward and walked out directly.

A magnificent ancient city appeared before them.

Ye Tianlai didn't have time to take a closer look. He raised his hand and picked up Wushuang, protecting Xu Si Ning behind him, ready to deal with possible dangers.

Xu Si Ning looked at Ye Tian's actions, and her heart warmed up. She walked directly to Ye Tian's side:

"Don't worry, my husband. This is an empty city. There won't be any danger."

Hearing this, Ye Tian let down his guard, retracted the spear in his hand, and looked at Xu Si Ning with a smile on his face:

"You seem to be familiar with this place?"

"Of course, I have seen all of this in the Imperial Master's residence.

I'm familiar with this place, don't worry, I'll lead the way."

Ye Tian's expression turned cold and he asked, "Really?"

Xu Si Ning said with a proud look on her face: "Of course, this underground palace was left by an ancient sage.

I heard there are many secrets hidden in here, how about I take you to have a look now."

Having said that, Xu Si Ning turned to look at Ye Tian, ​​and seeing Ye Tian's strange expression, she realized that she seemed to be a little exposed.

She didn't know how to face Ye Tian, ​​nor did she know how to explain. She could only lower her head helplessly.

Ye Tian was speechless when he saw this. If someone didn’t know, they would think he had done something wrong.

"Harmful"

He sighed weakly, walked to Xu Si Ning, and grabbed Xu Si Ning's face:

"Now tell me the truth, what are you hiding from me?

Otherwise, I will be careful to follow the rules of my family."

Hearing this, Xu Si Ning looked up at Ye Tian:

"Husband, don't you blame me for hiding it from you?"

"Snapped"

Ye Tian slapped Xu Si Ning's butt directly, and then said:

“Of course I blame you, but what else can I do after meeting you?

Tell me the truth, tell me what you can say, and I won't force you."

Although Xu Si Ning and Ye Tian were already married and everything that was supposed to happen had happened, she was a lady from a wealthy family after all, and she couldn't help blushing when she was spanked.

However, after hearing that Ye Tian had no intention of settling scores later, he immediately buried his head in Ye Tian's arms:

“My husband, you are so kind.

In fact, I didn’t mean to hide it from you. It was all the instructions from the Imperial Master.

In order to search for your existence, the national master spent a lot of time and effort, and finally found a glimmer of hope.

Therefore, no one dares to influence your destiny line and can only let you develop freely.

So there are some things I still can't tell you, but there is a contract in our marriage certificate, and I will definitely not harm you.

If you don’t believe me, I can swear to it.”

Having said that, Xu Si Ning raised her hand.

"Snapped"

Ye Tian slapped him again, shook his head and said, "Okay, what's the point of swearing?

If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. You look familiar with this place. You will lead the way and I will protect you from behind. "

"Boom"

Seeing that Ye Tian didn't bother with her, Xu Si Ning kissed Ye Tian on the face:

"Okay, I'll lead the way."

As he said that, he walked in front of Ye Tian.

Ye Tian wiped the saliva from his face helplessly and followed.

Only then did Ye Tian have time to take a closer look at the ancient city, but after looking for a long time he still couldn't figure out what it was.

It feels a bit like the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty, but it is definitely much older, not to mention there are inscriptions carved on the walls.

It looked very profound and mysterious at first glance, leaving Ye Tian confused.

However, Xu Si Ning didn't care about these things at all. She didn't even stop along the way and took Ye Tian directly to the city gate.

Xu Si Ning said excitedly: "We're here. This is it."

Ye Tian looked up for a long time, but there was not even a name on the city gate, which didn't make sense at all.

Besides, the city gate is still closed and I don’t know how to get in.

As for flying over, Ye Tian didn’t even dare to think about it. Who knows what will happen?

He was not stupid. Although he could not understand the inscriptions, he could still sense the dangerous aura.

Ye Tian could only look at Xu Si Ning. He had no doubt that Xu Si Ning definitely knew the way in.

Sure enough, before Ye Tian could speak, Xu Si Ning started muttering, and then dropped another drop of blood on the city gate.

"Kakaka"

With Xu Si Ning's operation, the city gate slowly opened.

Ye Tian lost interest in the things in the city gate, grabbed Xu Si Ning's hand and said:

"Are you of some special bloodline?

How come you can open everything? Otherwise, give me two drops of blood and I’ll keep them for use.”

Looking at the funny Ye Tian, ​​Xu Si Ning rolled her eyes: "This is the inheritance place left by the human race, of course we have to use the blood of the human race.

What's so special about it? How about using yours next time?"

Although Xu Si Ning said this, she still leaned her head on Ye Tian's shoulder.

She knew that Ye Tian did all this just to prevent her from having wild thoughts, and she couldn't bear to use Ye Tian's blood.

When Ye Tian heard this, he immediately lost interest:

“I thought there was something different, so use mine next time.

Okay, lead the way."

As Ye Tian spoke, he hugged Xu Si Ning again and let her lead the way.

Xu Si Ning naturally took Ye Tian's hand and headed towards the city.

It was a little different from what Ye Tian had originally imagined. The city was not a residential area, but a series of palaces.

Under the leadership of Xu Si Ning, Ye Tian came to a palace called "Book Pavilion".

Pushing the door open, it looks a bit like a modern library, with full bookshelves filled with books.

It is not the bamboo slips used in the pre-Qin period, but paper books.

Ye Tian used his cultivation to observe and found that there were 3,600 bookshelves in the hall, which coincided with the number of Zhoutian.

There are a total of 129,600 books, which coincides with the number of Yuanhui.

The types of books are also quite diverse, including astronomy and calendar, classics and history, and secret manuals on martial arts.

Ye Tian was stunned again for a moment. The owner of this ancient city was too rich.

This is an ancient book, which is a symbol of power and wealth.

You should know that these books alone were enough to create countless aristocratic families in ancient times.

Most of the emperors in ancient times ruled the world together with aristocratic families.

To be more precise, the authority of the aristocratic families is, to some extent, greater than that of the emperor.

Before the imperial examination system came into being, officials were basically from clans.

Even after the emergence of the imperial examination system, aristocratic families still monopolized the spread of writing.

There is a popular saying among the people: Dynasties come and go, but families remain forever.

The reason why aristocratic families are so powerful is because of their family collection of books.

Looking at all this in front of him, Ye Tian was full of curiosity about the owner of this ancient city.

Who on earth could have collected so many books?

How high is his status and power?

Why has it never appeared in history books?

Ye Tian still needs to find the answers to all this.
